Career

[edit]

TuS Heeslingen

[edit]

Bargfrede joined the Heeslingen youth system at the age of 6, in 1995. He stayed with them until 2004.

Werder Bremen

[edit]

Bargfrede joined the Werder Bremen youth academy in 2004 and debuted for Werder Bremen II in 2007. On 1 July 2008, Bargfrede was offered a senior team contract. He picked up his first appearance for the senior team on 8 August 2009 in a 2–3 loss to Eintracht Frankfurt. He came on as a substitute in the 74th minute, replacing Tim Borowski.[2] Since then, he has racked up over 150 appearances for the club. In March 2018, Werder Bremen announced that Bargfrede had signed a contract extension which included arrangements to keep him at the club after the end of his playing career.[3]

In August 2020, Bargfrede was released by Werder Bremen after 16 years at the club. He stated his intention of returning to the club in the future in a non-playing role.[4] However, on 24 October 2020, he re-signed for Werder on a one-year deal, joining the reserves.[5] On 24 April 2021, he made his comeback for Werder's first team in the Bundesliga in a 3–1 defeat against Union Berlin.[6]

Alongside his playing career for Werder Bremen's reserve team, Bargfrede was also appointed assistant coach of the team in July 2021.[7] A year later, in June 2022, Bargfrede took on a new role as assistant coach of the club's U17 team, still alongside his playing career.[8]
